i don't have climate control but mine had the same problem and the thermostat was stuck open. I think it cost me $30....$15 for labour and $15 for the thermostat.

Strangely enough a fellow workmate had the same problem after changing the battery.After doing the climate control diagnostic which includes a door calibration.It all works fine etc.,

PRess your off button and the bottom right button (inside the flip down door) to perform this calibration.
Error codes will flash up if you have any problem!

you can sort of get an idea if your thermostat is stuck open by having a look at your temp gauge. If it is constantly cold it means that there is always water running fully through it and therefore not allowing the engine to heat up. Also because my engine was never heating up the fuel mixture was always rich because the computer thought it was cold and therefore it costed me more in petrol.
hope it helps, Cheers again |
